This does have some cough mixture element showing on the nose now, the palate still has plenty of acidity omit and some nice earthy flavours but I think this is probably on the decline now, although I'm still enjoying it as a decent mature Otago Pinot.

Très beau nez sur les petit fruit rouge. En bouche, on retrouve encore les petit fuit avec un peu de boisé. Belle rondeur, tannin soyeux, belle équilibre. Se boit très bien maintenant.

- Garnet color - Dark garnet in colour with slight browning on the edge the nose shows boysenberry, dark cherry with floral and spice and savoury (aged) aromas leading on to a smooth dense well- structured palate. mouthfeel of silky tannin and well-balanced acidity ending in a rich dry finish.

Dark robe and quite heavy on the nose, almost meaty. In mouth, i found the wine slightly overpowering and would have been happier if it was a bit more on the light fruity side rather than heavy and opulent side. Not a bad wine at all just not my cup of tea.
